The Schicker bows are crafted using hand-selected “Pernambuco” wood which has been carefully aged for decades, and other high quality natural products. After finishing his apprenticeship, Horst founded his own bowmaking shop in 1971, and this certified master builder has been making showpiece bows ever since. This round-section pernambuco viola bow is fully mounted in sterling silver with silver winding. The fully lined snakewood frog has the slide and eyes made from mother-of-pearl. A lizard leather thumb grip and three-piece silver and snakewood adjuster finish the bow. This is a professional quality bow that will become a family heirloom.
Weight fully haired 71.9 grams.
